The BBC reported the TV spot made by Leo Burnett London prompted McDonald's UK to apologize. Many found it offensive, to which the hamburger chain said in an email statement, "We apologise for any upset this advert has caused. This was by no means an intention of ours."
The commercial, which was originally scheduled to run throughout the UK, was supposed to "highlight the role McDonald’s has played in our customers’ everyday lives – both in good and difficult times," the company said in the statement.
Even the UK's Advertising Standards Authority is looking into whether the sentimental ad went too far, the BBC reported.
UPDATE May 16, 2017, 12:19 p.m. PT: McDonald's UK released a statement that the company is pulling its "Dad" advertisement from all media. A spokesperson said, "We will also review our creative process to ensure this situation never occurs again.” The final advertisement is expected to air Wednesday before it's permanently removed.
